From Climate Anxiety to Climate Action : Building the Skills of the Green Economy

​What does it actually take to build a career, and an economy, around sustainability?

In this Elliot for Water webinar, we sit down with Raquel Noboa, Founder and CEO of Fifty Shades Greener. For Raquel, climate isn't an abstract concern — having lived through a tsunami first-hand, she knows what it means to feel the weight of a changing planet, and to turn that fear into something purposeful.

Her path began on the floor of an Irish hotel, where, starting from zero, she helped transform it into the country's first carbon-neutral hotel — and then turned that hard-won experience into Fifty Shades Greener, an internationally recognised sustainability education company on a mission to upskill 8 billion people.

Raquel will cover her journey into becoming a green skills specialist but also focus on the bigger picture: what green skills really are, the different levels they span, and why they're fast becoming one of the strongest competitive advantages in the future job market.

Whether you're early in your career, rethinking your direction, or building a more sustainable organisation, you'll leave with a clearer sense of where the green economy is heading — and the skills that will take you there.
